Club activity is up and running at West Davidson High School, and Spanish Club in particular is wasting no time getting the new projects for the year started. The Spanish Club's annual Pens for Pals program will run through Friday. Pens for Pals is a drive organized by Spanish Club members that will benefit underprivileged students in Costa Rica. Students are asked to bring in school supplies to their fourth-period teacher by the end of the week. Acceptable donations include but are not limited to pens, pencils, paper, crayons, colored pencils, binders, notebooks, rulers, markers and erasers. However, you don't have to be a student at West to participate in this cause. Supplies or money donations are greatly appreciated. You can contact the club sponsor, Carola Ponce, by calling the school at 853-7299 or by email cponce@davidson.k12.nc.us to see how you can help.The in-school drive ends Friday but donations will still be accepted until Thanksgiving. Spanish Club is a student-led club.
